I always love the subjis they make in North India for roti. Its wholesome, easy and healthy too (without more oil). And I wish I know more subjis that goes well with phulkas. I have to try more and post it here too in future. Its easy and gives me break from our usual south Indian cooking. This Aloo bhaji recipe (without onion) has been shared by my friend Sangeeta long time back, which I tried and clicked 3 weeks back. It’s a no onion no garlic recipe too and apart from poori, we tried it for peas pulao also and it was perfect. I am sure it will go well with mild rice varieties. Once in Kailash Parbhat, I had Sindhi curry and loved it. It was so unique in taste for me. And after that one, this aloo bhaji is my favorite. It tasted a teeny weeny bit like that. Mainly coz of the methi seeds and the tanginess. So do try this for rice or puri once for a change and you would love it. And its perfect vrat recipe too as its has no onion or garlic in it.
